→Challenge fails with unauthorized 403 error

You need to check the ownership and rights on ''/home/e-smith/files/ibays/Primary'' and on ''/home/e-smith/files/ibays/Primary/html''. The contrib creates a hidden working directory at ''/home/e-smith/files/ibays/Primary/html/.well-known'' and inside that directory a second directory with the following path ''/home/e-smith/files/ibays/Primary/html/.well-known/acme-challenge''. The script creates the two new directories with the correct ownerships and rights, however, if the ownership and rights on the ibay and the html directory do not allow the script to access the new location, the challenge will fail with ''access denied''
use the following to check the rights:
cd /home/e-smith/files/ibays
then
ls -l
on my test server with only the Primary ibay I get the following:
total 4
drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 4096 Jul 25 2016 Primary
IF this is not what you see, you need to correct it. '''THIS MAY BREAK NON STANDARD CUSTOMIZATION OF YOUR SERVER, YOU NEED TO UNDERSTAND WHY THIS HAS BEEN CHANGED BEFORE YOU REVERSE IT'''
From within ''/home/e-smith/files/ibays/'' issue the following:
chown root:root Primary
If the rights are not correct, issue:
chmod 0755 Primary
Next check the html directory.
cd /home/e-smith/files/ibays/Primary
then
ls -l
on my test server I have the following
[root@backupserver Primary]# ls -l
total 12
drwxr-s--- 2 admin shared 4096 Jul 25 2016 cgi-bin
drwxr-s--- 2 admin shared 4096 Jul 25 2016 files
'''drwxr-s--- 3 admin shared 4096 Jun 11 08:06 html'''
If this is not what you see '''FIRST READ ABOVE WARNING''' then adjust as follows
chown admin:shared html
If the rights are not correct, issue:
chmod 2750 html
